Hi Mike.
Nope I had no pack so whenever I was told where the ship was it was super
spammy.
I can see the advantage in vector aiming though how do you aim down? Also as
I said there was a bug sinse whenever I typed "aim +" or "aim + 4" or
something like that I got told "choose a coordinate on the new z axis" or
something like that and I couldn't actually aim at all. I got lucky with the
rat in the tutorial sinse it was west of me and I could just type aim 4
which worked.
Also, why the hell is tracking so spammy, I dn't need to be told "a computer
voice says" bl bla can't it just give the coordinates? really this is a
major fault in the game and considering I had one ship destroyed and one
nearly crippled it was pretty serious, and I've got my voice rate set pretty
high.
I prefer vip, so a vip pack would be nice anyway, as Vip works much better
with sapi than mush does (reviewing and such is easier), but I will confess
I'm a little irritated that a pac is necessary, sinse I thought the game was
intended to be accessible off the bat anyway, really the staff should do a
better job with combat display here and I'm surprised nobody has mentioned
this before.
If you could send me the pack I might try again, although I confess I'm a
bit irritated with the game thus far as it seems amazingly harsh when you
screw up.
I logged out and got one ship blown up, bye bye starter lone, I messed up a
ground combat (which I admit was my fault), then I got one ship severely
crippled and one ship blown to bits in twoimpossible combats leaving me with
no money, no ship, no suit and no way to progress, and all the suggestion I
got was "go beg my alliance" who didn't particularly help either (not that
I'd go begging money off people).
I couldn't even take out a lone.
If you send me the pack I might give the game another try.
All the best,
Dark.

Hey dark,
I'm glad you asked here, and now that I know it was you, I can help. Do
you have a pack for SC? Their is one for VIP, and once we're done
updating the one for VIP, I'm going to port it to mushclient. The reason
I couldn't say this to you on newbie, is because the staff don't like
players talking about packs on the game. Once our pack is approved by the
staff, we can though. If you need the pack for vip, I can drop you a
link. Now for your questions.
I'm guessing that you didn't have the pack, so combat was a ton harder for
you. With the pack, you'll see the following:
tracking <enemy>
<direction>
In SC, their are two ways to lock on to an enemy. Coords and vectors. My
guess is that you had coords selected as your preferred aiming method. I
use vector aiming. W is north, A is west, D is east, and so on.
For aiming up and down, I do aim -s, or +s. Remember that sine S is at the
center of WASD, it tells the game to aim either directly up, or down. You
can change this with aim +w, aim -x, and so on.
Let me know if this helps, and if you need the pack. Hope you decide to
give the game another try with this information.
Mike.

Hi.
Well I have asked this on audiogames.net so might as well ask here.
?
Promethius I find a little incoherent for my taste in terms of activities
and what not, miriani I don't like the idea of all the pvp and license to
grief, so I decided to try star conquest. I have heard the bit about the
enforced rp and profile creation but I thought I tried that, however I've
not had a game where I've failed quite so badly.
?
I did the tutorial and talked to the new pilot lieason office and did the
tasks he said. Expooring and salvage were fine but combat was a real
pest, mostly because there is no quick way to get the coordinates of the
enemy and by the time you've heard the computer saying "rat automated
starship at 3 4 5 " the bloody thing has likely moved, ---- and no I am
not rewritng my entire mud client just to play one game with all the
scripting and such, I have no idea how to do that I just want to play not
program.
?
I did try ground combat and that was cool, accept I got my battlesuit
blown up which I freely admit was entirely my faultfor not bailing fast
enough.
i then quit the game and lost my cargo hauler leaving me with two sets of
massive bills and no ship. I just about! had enough for a flitter which I
bought, and tried a little combat again, and got completely slaughtered,
particularly sinse the aim + command for aiming up in combat just didn't
work, I was told "select a direction on the z axis"
?
How the hell does anyone! do combat in this game?
?
with no money, and no ship I was stuck (nd I couldn't get a lone either
sinse I kept getting refused), and the only advice I got was go and beg
on alliance channel. People were actually very nice on the newby channel,
but didn't really have any suggestions.
?
I'd rather not make myself a pain to other players especially when i'm
learning a game and making so many major mistakes, so I deleted my
character.
?
Given however that a lot of people do! play star conquest, I wonder, how
the hell do people do it? am I missing something about combat? or does it
take all that scripting nonsense, ie, the game is not accessible without
massive amounts of work.
?
Any advice appreciated sinse I really want to play a space game, I did
enjoy the background and some of the activities, but I am frankly now
rather frustrated.
Back to alter methinks.
All the best,
Dark.
